The intersection in the image is one in which the traffic is directed with regulatory priority signs. Even if only on the road without priority regulatory priority signs are installed, namely the “Give way” sign and the “Stop” sign, this intersection is one with directed traffic.
We draw attention that such intersections in which the regulatory priority signs are found installed only on the road or, as the case may be, on the roads without priority, are also encountered in reality, these being intersections with directed traffic.
The green car and the red car come from roads without priority, encountering the “Give way” sign and the “Stop” sign, and are obliged to give priority to the vehicles that come from the priority road, namely the truck, which will pass first through this intersection.
The green car and the red car have equal rights to pass through this intersection because they encounter signs that have the same meaning of loss of priority, namely the “Give way” sign and the “Stop” sign, however because the red car intends to turn left it will give priority to the green car because by turning left, the green car comes from its right side.
The order of passing is the following: the truck, followed by the green car, and the last through the intersection will pass the red car. Therefore, the 2nd through this intersection will pass the green car.
The correct answer is: B
OUG* - Article 59
[...]
(2) At the intersections, the drivers of the vehicles who turn left are obliged to give priority to the vehicles with which they intersect and which travel from the right side.
(3) At the intersections with traffic directed by priority signs, the rule of the priority from the right is respected only in the case where two vehicles are about to meet, each entering the intersection from a road signalled with a sign having the same meaning of priority or loss of priority.

Regulation** - Article 129
(1) The vehicle that travels on a public road on which one of the signs having the meaning: “Priority road”, “Intersection with a road without priority” or “Priority over the oncoming traffic” is installed, has priority.
(2) When two vehicles are about to meet in an intersection directed by signs, coming from two public roads where signs with the same meaning are installed, the vehicle that comes from the right has priority.
